Should I use expert witnesses?<br />
It’s a good idea to hire expert witnesses to give evidence about technical questions at the hearing.<br />
Expert witnesses may have to prepare written statements about their education, experience and<br />
opinions on the issues. They may also be asked to submit a list of the reports they intend to use at<br />
the hearing. You may have to send the other parties and their representatives copies of your expert<br />
witnesses’ statements and reports before the hearing begins, depending on pre-hearing requirements<br />
issued by the OMB.<br />
Where can I find more information?<br />
